I guess we'll be seeing a new system administration job popping up on jobs.netsol.com? Michael On Thu, 17 Jul 1997, David Holtzman wrote:
On Wednesday night, July 16, during the computer-generation of the Internet top-level domain zone files, an Ingres database failure resulted in corrupt .COM and .NET zone files. Despite alarms raised by Network Solutions' quality assurance schemes, at approximately 2:30 a.m. (Eastern Time), a system administrator released the zone file without regenerating the file and verifying its integrity. Network Solutions corrected the problem and reissued the zone file by 6:30 a.m. (Eastern Time).
Thank you. David H. Holtzman Sr VP Engineering, Network Solutions dholtz@internic.net
